Butterfly fly, fly away

Butterflies away

I recently purchased a few embossing folders from Darice.  This butterfly one seemed perfect for the challenge at  Fashionable Stamping Challenge this week which is Swirls http://www.fashionablestampingchallenges.com/ 

 

I started with the Tim Holtz paper in what I believe to be Brushed Corderoy, i stamped it with two Stampers Anonymous stamps then embossed it and added his Mettalic Stain and a Faber Castellated Gelato crayon.  The edges were distressed and inked with Distress ink in Brushed Corderoy.  I  I then added the following: G45 a Moment in Time March paper, TH On the Edge Butterfly die, TH Paper tape, TH metal corners, Ranger Pearls and cut out some  butterfly's from Calico Studio papers.  Lastly I felt the sentiment looked kinda plain so I re-stamped it onto some Studio Calico mauve paper and cut and pasted some of the words, I loved how it turned out!
